For papers, dissertations and theses (graduate students), the Library suggests using the styles employed by publications in your area of research and/or recommended by your department. This style should include, at the very least, the article title, full journal title, page number, author(s), date, volume and number.

If no style has been recommended by the department, you can choose between APA (author-date style) and IEEE (numbered style).

APA 6^th :

In the library :   American Psychological Association. (2010). Publication manual of the American Psychological Association (6th ed.). Washington, DC: American Psychological Association.

To help you manage your bibliographies, the Library has made EndNote available free of charge. EndNote can be linked to MSWord and can format a bibliography from your reference database in many styles, including APA and IEEE, as well as a BibTeX guide (in French) for LaTeX users.
